Williams Lake Coun. Jason Ryll said his truck was already packed and ready to go when the alert was issued late Saturday.

A major wind event is forecast to hit the Cariboo and southern British Columbia today, bringing gusts of up to 70 kilometres per hour to some areas. However windy conditions Saturday fuelled the flames and led to the Evacuation Order. "It's making it hard to fight the fire and to keep everyone safe so they've giving out a lot of evacuation alerts and orders so we can remove that threat and get in there and work properly on the fire without any worry of people being in the path". The alert covers the entire District of Clearwater with the exception of the Canfor Vavenby mill site and the Yellowhead Mines property. "It's going to happen we just have to keep a close eye on how it unfolds". "They should be thinking about their life and safety first".
